In this guide, we will be discussing some plausible methods to fix the issue of being unable to download the songs purchased from Amazon Music. This music streaming platform plus an online music store is among the most popular offerings in this domain. Being among the very first player in the market, it manages to checkmark most of the prerequisites that one could usually ask for.
Plus the fact that you don’t need to purchase any additional subscription plan and could easily use your Prime account is also a welcome benefit for the users. Moreover, it also allows you to easily purchase the song of your choice and then download it locally on your device. This way you will be able to listen to the song offline using the media player of your choice. Or is that really the case?
We are raising this concern as many users have reported that they are now unable to download their purchased songs. Others have said that while they are able to download the song, it doesn’t appear anywhere on their devices. if you are also getting bugged with any of these issues, then let’s check out the workarounds that could fix the issue of being unable to download the songs purchased from Amazon Music.
Fix: Cannot Download Amazon Music Purchased Songs
It goes without saying that this is a server-side change and there’s no workaround that would rectify this issue. Talking about which, users have already tried deleting the app’s cache and data, reinstalling the app, or logging out and re-signing into the app, but to no avail. So as of now the only way to fix this issue is to listen to your purchased songs via the Amazon Music app itself. While this in no way is the perfect or most viable approach, but that’s the only resource we have at our disposal as of now.
Initially, this change seemed to be intentional and it was more like Amazon was encapsulating its userbase to remain within its restrive boundaries only (something that is sadly becoming the new normal in recent years). But one of the Amazon Support staff said that “Our technical team is aware of the issue”. If we focus on this statement, it seems to be more of a bug than an intentional change, so there does seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel.
In this regard, as and when there is further development or the developer releases a patch that resolves this issue, we will update this guide accordingly. In the meantime, your only way out is to stick with the Amazon Music app itself. With that said, we round off this guide on how you could fix the issue of being unable to download the songs purchased from Amazon Music.
